Really nice song! Great voice and instruments!

digging the slinky sliding guitar on this. A vocal octave higher and this would sound like a Neil Young song!  Solid lyrics too man. Great collab.

We don't need another victim
We don't want to send them on their way home
We just wanted a life beyond
All they wanted was a life beyond their own

reimagining of the commercial hit song for the third sequel in a blockbuster franchise about the world after it's collapse.
 Forgive us, Tina
Not exactly a cover of ThunderDome's "We Don't Need Another Hero" sung by Tina Turner.

We Don't Need Another Victim (Hero) Open DL:o

made for good headphones

method: harp, drumsticks, voice, shoegaze, etc
narration: in my mind, there's been this convoluted, overly-complex story playing out about a diplomat losing a note on a sidewalk and media spinning its content into disrespect and all that .... when all this poem really is about is a reminder to mentally adapt to and cater for the usual range of diversity, I guess.

poem / copyright jo richter:

all those who come here
hold dear what they fear
most in attendance
are in ego-state trance
some of those present
are neurodivergent
while we'd long to see
more of those thriving on empathy

sifting through
lingering morsels
of bold statements
once uttered in pride

he came across
a tiny fragment
that rang of meaning:
no one could tell how

it fit in
right in the middle
of a gaping 
lack of reference

snugly it fit
into nowhere 
at all

Lyrics - Ron Todd

"Dust Clouds On The Horizon"

Heading out across the plain   
Eyes can't focus in the driving rain  
Horse is tired underneath my jeans 
Easy life ain't as easy as it seems  

Worked the ranches  rode the rodeo 
Risked it all on one last throw 
But as the time it turns to sand 
Worldly goods here in my hand

Chorus

They say life is special  
They say life is good   
But the cold still gets underneath this hood 
But when the sun comes out  
Feel It burns like fire 
And the prairie dust gets higher and higher 

Old guitar strapped to my back 
Singing songs at the roadside cafe (sang caf)
Like Bronson said along the way 
Might go back  maybe some day 

Chorus

Bridge

Days leaving money lying on a night stand 
Women I’ve known some good  some bad
Some had grace just like a ballerina 
Others they rocked it  rocked it like Tina

Guitar break
 
Dreamt about a tired old man 
He was sitting by a rusty old van  
Watching waves come to the shore
Felt I’d walked this way before

I realised this guy was me 
Songs replaced by senility 
Poured myself a whisky glass 
Glory days they just don't last
 
Chorus

Give it everything you can 
Cos when it's over then it's over  
Whether woman or a man 

And that prairie dust just gets higher and higher
Yeah it just gets higher and higher

After reading this article released a few days ago we now have a character called AI Aira.

Meet AI Aira (The beginning, The principle, The breathe of life)

Artificial intelligence is getting better every day at imitating humans. But can our minds, our relationships, and our concept of reality itself cope?

What will be left for humans to do as AI improves? Will we feel like we have no purpose and meaning — and will we suffer the inevitable depression that comes with that?
